Wow. Talk about an attractive, reasonably dense space-filler... which Adelaide has needed for a while in this central area. With Vue nearing completion, it seems the floodgates have opened.

Pleased to see developer interest on this side of the city and in apartments continue, though there's not much to go on yet. Will wait to see more, but at first glance IMO the All Suites hotel looks worse than Urbanest of North Tce.

Apparently 322 KWS is up near the Sealink building and across the road from Vue... :roll:

Bunch of under-resourced clowns. They should just shut News Corps' "news" doors. It's not doing anyone any good (not even the shareholders).

Corralling a bunch of 40+ people into an apartment complex doesn't sit well from a sales perspective. Seems to be ignoring a big slice of the apartment buyer demographic...

Let's hope this one gets up. More for the sake of employment. We need a building and construction recovery. Even if the oldies do not take this up we should be looking at giving skilled immigrants incentives to come to Adelaide to invest and work here. Developments like this close to public transport, Victoria Square and the Central Market are just perfect.

Cheers

P.S. This development looks quite good too.

If we are to be really serious about increasing residential population in the city, with vibrancy, diversity and permanency, there needs to be more apartments for small families ie single parents with 2 teenagers etc. These small families would ideally require 3 bedroom/2bath and a small separate study/tv room. At present this floor plan would only be available to the millionaires, however by locking this large demographic out of the city market ignores a huge potential group of residents. Any developer that could supply such a floor plan at an affordable price would sell out in no time, and the CBD would be much better for it. I and many of my friends are in this group and would be happy to live in the CBD for under $500K.

A display centre for this project is being constructed in the empty tenancies of the old Trims building.

Totally agree with you. The city needs to cater to families as well, and not just to investors and first home buyers. Diversity is needed and it can only be a good thing. Prices are the issue though.

That building just looks like a taller, uglier version of that 8 storey thing on Hume Street (near Hutt Street). Very mediocre. We can do far better on King William Street.

Ben, what has the bldg you submitted to do with the 28 level blocks which I believe were to be built? How does this fit in. Has there benen a height reduction? :mrgreen: I also agree with slenderman's opinion of it being mediocre.

That photo Ben posted looks like the one that is set far back in the original render. I don't think that one is on KWS. Ben, can you confirm that?

Yeh it is in the background of the 2 tall towers. Unsure of the exact location until we get the plans.
